About This Cause

The Central California SPCA (CCSPCA), established in 1946 and located in Fresno County, California, is a 501(c)(3) non-profit humane society. We are also known as the Fresno County Humane Society, Inc. As the leading animal welfare organization in California’s Central Valley, we are committed to leading and serving our community of animals and people by providing programs and services which serve all the stages of an animal’s life. These programs include Humane Investigations, Adoptions, Rescue, Foster Care, Owner Surrenders, Outreach, Humane Education, Veterinary Services, Spay/Neuter programs, and Pet Services. Our Humane Officers investigate incidents of animal cruelty and neglect, educate the public on proper care for animals, and prepare and submit cases for prosecution to the Fresno County District Attorney’s Office. The CCSPCA’s Animal Cruelty Division investigates nearly 1,000 reported cases of animal cruelty and neglect each year. CCSPCA Humane Officers have authority to enforce laws throughout the County of Fresno, including all incorporated cities. Our Humane Officers are empowered through California Corporations Code 14502 to exercise the powers of a peace officer while investigating animal-related crimes. The modern facilities and our caring staff offer safe refuge, nourishment, medical care, and love to every animal in our Animal Center. Free ambulance service and shelter is provided for lost or stray animals in the City of Fresno, or those owned but temporarily without homes because their owners can no longer keep them. The CCSPCA also assumes responsibility, by contract, to perform the Animal Control and Leash Law services for the city of Fresno dating back to September 1951. Although the CCSPCA is contracted to conduct Animal Control Services and Rabies Control Enforcement within the city of Fresno, we are not federally, state, or locally funded and do not receive aid from any national organization (including the ASPCA). The CCSPCA owns its own land, buildings, and equipment purchased with privately donated funds. Our funds come from our loyal supporters, allowing us to provide many vital services to our community.
